Clarifying

I just want to quickly clarify what I meant in my last two posts. I was angry, and a little rash. But my anger was more in the Democrats than Alito. Republicans are always going to propose conservative laws, nominate conservative judges, etc. I was upset that the Democrats didn't put a defense up against this. In the past, like with Alaska drilling and budget cuts, the Democrats have banded together and blocked or reformed conservative legislation. I hoped that the same could happen here. It could have either ended the nomination, or sent a message that the Democrats are a viable force in congress. The lack of this show was very disheartening.

I love to read the comments you've left; they've been the most gratifying part of the blogs short life. Thanks, and keep them up. Hope this has cleared up where I stand.
